Dedicated to fostering holistic health and well-being, my professional journey has led me to specialise in women's health, with a focus on perimenopause, menopause, and the unique challenges associated with Type 2 Diabetes. As someone navigating menopause while managing Type 2 Diabetes, I intimately understand the obstacles you face. In addition to my expertise in women's health, I bring a personal understanding of late-diagnosed ADHD, allowing me to connect with and support individuals going through similar experiences. Holding a university qualification in Naturopathy (Bachelor of Health Science), I am also committed to serving the LGBTQIA+ community, individuals involved in sex work, and those embracing kink and BDSM lifestyles. Join me on a journey towards holistic well-being, where we can work together to achieve optimal health and embrace a balanced life.

Buteyko breathing is highly beneficial for clients with conditions such learning disorders, asthma, sinusitis, sleep apnoea, snoring, reflux, IBS, and anxiety. Jean also utilizes the powerful medicinal properties of herbs to address dysregulation of body systems and enhance energy production. Where appropriate Jean uses functional testing to gain a greater understanding of her clients’ health status. She finds testing can be particularly useful when treating hormonal imbalance, food allergies and intolerances, mood disorders and to identify genetic predispositions.
